Yes, lumag == Dmitry.
prism2_usb is broken completely on .31. Someone should fix it or just drop 
and forget.. :(

Well.. I'm a bit busy now so this work is mostly stalled. And we should 
release new kexecboot before. Then I will continue that work because my wife 
grab my Akita to read books on it :)

About testing.. Better way is to hang on #oe (irc.freenode.org) and ping me 
(Jay7). You will see any progress then :)
